In total, there are 2 A+ examinations and sections to study, and your requirement is to achieve certification in both for qualification purposes. Qualifying in CompTIA A+ without additional courses will allow you to fix and maintain stand alone Macs, computers and laptops; ones which are usually not part of a network - which is for the most part the home market. If your ambition is being responsible for networks of computers, you should add Network+ to your A+ course. Taking this course as well will prepare you to command a more senior job role. Other ones that might be interesting to you are the route to networking via Microsoft, in the form of MCP's, MCSA or the full MCSE.
Sometimes, folks don't understand what IT is doing for all of us. It's ground-breaking, exciting, and means you're doing your bit in the gigantic wave of technology that will impact the whole world for generations to come. We're at the dawn of beginning to comprehend what this change will mean to us. How we interact with the world will be massively affected by technology and the internet.
A standard IT worker throughout Britain is likely to get a lot more money than employees on a par in much of the rest of the economy. Typical wages are hard to beat nationally. It seems there is a lot more room for IT industry increases in Great Britain as a whole. The sector is still growing hugely, and as we have a significant shortage of skilled professionals, it's highly unlikely that things will be any different for the significant future.
If you're like many of the students we talk to then you're quite practically minded - a 'hands-on' personality type. If you're anything like us, the unfortunate chore of reading reference guides can be just about bared when essential, but you'd hate it. So look for on-screen interactive learning packages if book-based learning really isn't your style. Where we can involve all our senses in the learning process, then we normally see dramatically better results.
Start a study-program in which you'll get a host of CD and DVD based materials - you'll learn by watching video tutorials and demonstrations, and then have the opportunity to practice your skills in interactive lab's. Any company that you're considering must be pushed to demo a few examples of the materials provided for study. You're looking for evidence of tutorial videos and demonstrations and interactive areas to practice in.
It doesn't make sense to choose training that is only available online. Because of the variable quality and reliability of all internet service providers, make sure you get disc based courseware (On CD or DVD).
One area often overlooked by people mulling over a new direction is that of 'training segmentation'. Basically, this means the method used to break up the program to be delivered to you, which completely controls what you end up with. Many companies enrol you into a program spread over 1-3 years, and send out each piece as you complete each exam. This sounds reasonable until you consider the following: It's not unusual for trainees to realise that the trainer's 'standard' path of training isn't the easiest way for them. You may find that varying the order of study will be far more suitable. Perhaps you don't make it in the allotted time?
For future safety and flexibility, most students now choose to request that all their modules (now paid for) are sent immediately, and not in a piecemeal fashion. You can then decide at what speed and in which order you'd like to take your exams.
